Er verbrachte seine Tage damit, die Beweisstücke für sein Alibi in Ordnung zu halten, falls die Anklage wegen eines der in der Stadt vorgefallenen Morde gegen ihn erhoben werden sollte. Überflüssig zu bemerken, daß er ein ebenso moralischer wie fein gebildeter Mensch war. Die – übrigens zur Heilung führende – Analyse deckte als die Begründung dieser peinlichen Zwangsvorstellung Mordimpulse gegen seinen etwas überstrengen Vater auf, die sich, als er sieben Jahre alt war, zu seinem Erstaunen bewußt geäußert hatten, aber natürlich aus weit früheren Kindesjahren stammten. Nach der qualvollen Krankheit und dem Tode des Vaters trat im 31. Lebensjahre der Zwangsvorwurf auf, der sich in Form jener Phobie auf Fremde übertrug. Wer im stande war, seinen eigenen Vater von einem Berggipfel in den Abgrund stoßen zu wollen, dem ist allerdings zuzutrauen, daß er auch das Leben Fernerstehender nicht schone; der tut darum recht daran, sich in seine Zimmer einzuschließen.\n\nNach meinen bereits zahlreichen Erfahrungen spielen die Eltern im Kinderseelenleben aller späteren Psychoneurotiker die Hauptrolle, und Verliebtheit gegen den einen, Haß gegen den anderen Teil des Elternpaares gehören zum eisernen Bestand des in jener Zeit gebildeten und für die Symptomatik der späteren Neurose so bedeutsamen Materials an psychischen Regungen. Ich glaube aber nicht, daß die Psychoneurotiker sich hierin von anderen normal verbleibenden Menschenkindern scharf sondern, indem sie absolut Neues und ihnen Eigentümliches zu schaffen vermögen. Es ist bei weitem wahrscheinlicher und wird durch gelegentliche Beobachtungen an normalen Kindern unterstützt, daß sie auch mit diesen verliebten und feindseligen Wünschen gegen ihre Eltern uns nur durch die Vergrößerung kenntlich machen, was minder deutlich und weniger intensiv in der Seele der meisten Kinder vorgeht. Das Altertum hat uns zur Unterstützung dieser Erkenntnis einen Sagenstoff überliefert, dessen durchgreifende und allgemeingültige Wirksamkeit nur durch eine ähnliche Allgemeingültigkeit der besprochenen Voraussetzung aus der Kinderpsychologie verständlich wird.\n\nDie Ödipusmythe und ihre infantile Wurzel.", "source_id": "project-gutenberg-40739", "translation_type": "original_language" }, { "language": "en", "text": "On another occasion I had the opportunity to gain deep insight into the unconscious mental life of a young man who, rendered almost incapable of living by obsessional neurosis, could not go out into the street because he was tormented by the fear that he killed everyone who passed him. He spent his days keeping the evidence for his alibi in order, in case he should be charged with one of the murders committed in the city. It is needless to remark that he was as moral as he was highly cultivated. The analysis, which incidentally led to his recovery, uncovered as the basis of this painful obsession murderous impulses against his somewhat overly strict father, impulses that had consciously expressed themselves, to his astonishment, when he was seven years old, but naturally originated in much earlier years of childhood. After his father's agonizing illness and death, the obsessive self-reproach appeared in his thirty-first year and was displaced onto strangers in the form of that phobia. Anyone capable of wishing to push his own father from a mountain peak into the abyss may indeed be suspected of not sparing the lives of those more remote from him either; he is therefore right to shut himself up in his rooms.\n\nAccording to my already extensive experience, the parents play the principal role in the childhood mental life of all those who later become psychoneurotics, and being in love with one member of the parental pair and hating the other belong to the iron stock of psychical impulses formed at that time and so significant for the symptomatology of the later neurosis. I do not believe, however, that in this respect psychoneurotics are sharply distinguished from other children who remain normal, as though they were capable of creating something absolutely new and peculiar to themselves. It is far more probable, and is supported by occasional observations of normal children, that with these loving and hostile wishes toward their parents they merely make recognizable to us, through magnification, what takes place less distinctly and less intensely in the minds of most children. In support of this recognition, antiquity has handed down to us a legendary subject matter whose profound and universal effectiveness can be understood only through a similar universality of the premise from child psychology discussed here.\n\nThe Oedipus myth and its infantile root.", "translator": "Codex gpt-5.6-sol", "edition": "Prokopton42 non-official AI translation, 2026-09-14", "source_id": "prokopton42-codex-translation:gpt-5.6-sol:corpus-passage-translation-v1", "translation_type": "ai_generated_translation", "official_status": "non_official", "generation_model": "gpt-5.6-sol" }, { "language": "fr", "text": "Une autre fois, j’eus l’occasion de pénétrer profondément dans la vie psychique inconsciente d’un jeune homme que sa névrose obsessionnelle rendait presque incapable de vivre et qui ne pouvait sortir dans la rue parce qu’il était tourmenté par la crainte de tuer toutes les personnes qui passaient près de lui. Il passait ses journées à mettre en ordre les pièces prouvant son alibi, au cas où l’on porterait contre lui une accusation pour l’un des meurtres commis dans la ville. Il est superflu de remarquer que c’était un homme aussi moral que finement cultivé. L’analyse, qui conduisit d’ailleurs à la guérison, mit au jour, comme fondement de cette pénible représentation obsessionnelle, des impulsions meurtrières dirigées contre son père, un peu trop sévère, qui s’étaient manifestées consciemment, à son grand étonnement, lorsqu’il avait sept ans, mais qui provenaient naturellement d’années bien antérieures de son enfance. Après la maladie douloureuse et la mort du père, le reproche obsessionnel apparut dans sa trente et unième année et se reporta sur des étrangers sous la forme de cette phobie. Celui qui a été capable de vouloir précipiter son propre père du sommet d’une montagne dans l’abîme peut assurément être soupçonné de ne pas davantage épargner la vie de personnes plus éloignées; il fait donc bien de s’enfermer dans ses chambres.\n\nD’après mes expériences, déjà nombreuses, les parents jouent le rôle principal dans la vie psychique infantile de tous ceux qui deviendront plus tard psychonévrosés, et l’amour pour l’un des membres du couple parental, la haine pour l’autre, appartiennent au fonds inaltérable des mouvements psychiques formés à cette époque et si importants pour la symptomatologie de la névrose ultérieure. Je ne crois cependant pas que les psychonévrosés se distinguent nettement, sur ce point, des autres enfants qui demeurent normaux, comme s’ils étaient capables de créer quelque chose d’absolument nouveau et qui leur serait propre. Il est de loin plus probable, et des observations occasionnelles faites sur des enfants normaux le confirment, qu’avec leurs souhaits amoureux et hostiles envers leurs parents, ils ne font que nous rendre reconnaissable par grossissement ce qui se produit moins distinctement et moins intensément dans l’âme de la plupart des enfants. Pour étayer cette connaissance, l’Antiquité nous a transmis une matière légendaire dont l’efficacité profonde et universelle ne se comprend que si l’on attribue une universalité semblable au présupposé de psychologie infantile dont nous venons de parler.\n\nLe mythe d’Œdipe et sa racine infantile.", "translator": "Codex gpt-5.6-sol", "edition": "Prokopton42 non-official AI translation, 2026-09-14", "source_id": "prokopton42-codex-translation:gpt-5.6-sol:corpus-passage-translation-v1", "translation_type": "ai_generated_translation", "official_status": "non_official", "generation_model": "gpt-5.6-sol" } ], "content_checksum": "e518f9643d79619a7e3f62509fa8deabe8f2db6ad321b7f18f03351c0b5a7368" }
